We went to pick some flowers at @adeneflowerspreto We went to pick some flowers at @adeneflowerspretoria over the weekend. In the end, I didn't pick them, but I bought them as the queue was just too long and we had to get back home. Still, it's most definitely worth the visit, with the most stunning flowers that will liven up any room in your home. My suggestion would be to either arrive as they open their doors when you do go over the weekend. Alternatively, try to visit them during the week. #adenesfarmflowers #pretoria #flowersofinstagram #southafrica #flowerpicking

Choosing the right sunglasses for your facial shap Choosing the right sunglasses for your facial shape can be overwhelming, to say the least. Especially when you don’t have any guideline as to which shapes and sizes go best with which facial characteristics, skin tone and hair colour. With sunglasses forming such an important part of your style – elevating your daily look while also protecting your eyes from the sun – investing in the right pair of sunnies will certainly go a long way. After some digging, I have found some great tips and tricks that could serve as guideline when you go sunglass shopping next. Check out my latest blog post for more on www.suitcaseandchardonnay.co.za. (Link in stories) #StyleForEveryFace #FashionBloggerTips #StyleYourFaceShape #SunglassesShopping #AccessoriesMatter
The two wine cultivars – Cinsaut (previously kno The two wine cultivars – Cinsaut (previously known as Hermitage) and Pinot Noir – form an integral part of South African wine. In fact, these were the two cultivars that were used to create South Africa’s signature Pinotage 100 years ago. Today, these two cultivars proudly stand on their own, though – thanks to winemakers’ dedication. If you’d like to educate yourself on the likes of Cinsaut and Pinot Noir, head on over to my blog where you will find a simple explanation and guideline to start with. The link will also be in my stories. 🙂 #LearnAboutWine #WineFacts #Wine101 #ExploreWineVarieties #WineCurious
Nature has a way to instantly lift my mood. Even j Nature has a way to instantly lift my mood. Even just a stroll through the garden is often the perfect quick break from work. Having grown up in the Free State with its wide, open spaces and ample outdoor places to explore, the city sometimes feels a bit limited when it comes to nature. Still, there are some really scenic spots in Pretoria for nature lovers. From picnic spots and hiking trails to parks and botanical gardens, these are the best outdoor places to visit in Pretoria: https://www.suitcaseandchardonnay.co.za/unwind-in-nature-the-best-outdoor-places-to-visit-in-pretoria/ (Link also available under highlighted stories) #PretoriaOutdoors #DiscoverPretoria #ExplorePretoria #PretoriaNatureSpots #VisitPretoria @thebigredbarnza @moreletakloofnaturereserve @adeneflowerspretoria @hennops_hiking_trail @rietvlei_nature_reserve @groenkloofnature_reserve
